RULE #1
No Nonsense: Bashing and/or any other childish nonsense WILL NOT be tolerated for any reason. If you have a problem with another member, please private message ANY moderator or click on the "Report to moderator" button located in the bottom of each post. Do not take the matter into your own hands. Be patient with everyone and calmly/politely report any nonsense and treat others how you wish to be treated. We have a zero tolerance policy and it will be enforced.
This is board for adults (not 2 years olds). Act like it. If this is a problem, then you are in the wrong place. All new members are welcome and we look forward to having you as part of our community.
Multiple accounts from the same user will result in an automatic ban.
RULE #2
Prove yourself on our board FIRST: Do not come in here and make claims that you are the greatest handicapper in the world and everyone should bow down to you. Nobody is going to believe that you are a better handicapper when you have posted for a few days of winners or shown a slight hint of handicapping skill. This is not that type of board. Your past record at other forums, monitors, or before you started posting doesn't matter here. Do not come in here stating that you hit a certain percentage of your plays before you started posting here. Also, do not post records on games that you never posted on this board bc they can not be verified and it didn't help the board in any way. At these boards, you show that you can handicap on your own by posting at least one full profitable season of picks and by showing the other members that you have class. That is how you earn respect here.
RULE #3
Act like you've been there: Going on a hot streak doesn't make you "the man" or give you the right to boss people around here or any other rights. Just like real sports; act as if you have been on a hot streak before. Everyone is here to help one another. This board is not for bashing and talking trash. It's for quality sports handicapping discussion. Friendly handicapping competition is welcomed. Good solid handicapping work is noted and obliged by other members but do not expect special treatment for a hot week or month. We all are here to help one another and enjoy the games
RULE #4
No Selling picks in regular forums: There is no promoting or advertising sportbooks, any other sports forums, or non-endorsed handicapping services. There is no reference to handicapping services allowed except in the service plays forum. This is not that type of forum. We do our own handicapping at this board. This board is for handicappers or players who want learn more about handicapping on their own. URL's are also not allowed to be posted in member profiles unless an administrator has approved of it. Spammers and link builders are also not welcome. We have an eye for spammers. If you are trying to promote links on this board and you are reading this, LEAVE NOW.
RULE #5
Attention all Handicapping Services: If you are here to promote a sports handicapping service, then you must contact TheGame for details about becoming a "Endorsed Handicapping Service" on this site. Any handicapping service who attempts to promote anywhere in the forum with out that endorsement will be immediately banned and will not be allowed to post here again. We do not give out warnings on this rule. We do not tolerate spammers that come in here, choose not to read the rules, and think they are going to make a quick and easy dollar off of this site. Do not even try it. We'll have you banned within minutes.
RULE #6
Posting pictures on the forum: We know that most of the members will be men that is not a big secret. So we created a room for posting pics and the rules for this are simple. Pictures of topless and nude women are allowed. We will NOT tolerate pictures of sex acts or pictures with sex toys. We ask that you use good taste in all your pictures. If you have a question about a picture then DO NOT use it.
